Reactions between water-insoluble and water-soluble components are often slow, giving low yields. In order to prepare glycolipids composed of polysialic acid and N-(4-(p-maleimidylphenyl)butyryl)dipalmitoyl-L-α-phosphatidylethanol amine triethylammonium salt, we used liposomes to enhance the interfacial reaction between the reagents. Thus, thiolreactive liposomes were reacted with polysialic acid cysteamine. A 70% yield was achieved with this addition reaction, and the product was isolated by dialysis and centrifugation.
